Organic Nutrient Management in Chillies - Bengal Gram - Baby Corn Sequence

Field experiments were conducted at Tamil Nadu Agricultural University, Coimbatore during the year 2008-09 to 2010-11 to evaluate the performance of different organic farming packages for high value cropping system, viz., chillies – bengal gram – baby corn. The experiment was laid out in randomised block design with four replications. The results revealed that the combination of both organics and inorganics (50% each) resulted higher net returns and B:C ratio (2.95) due to the less cost involved in nutrient application compared with different organic farming packages. Among the different organic farming packages, 100% N as EFYM + neem cake + bio compost registered higher net returns with B:C ratio (2.50).
